Signature multi-material model of Singapore Champion Xevia Ng.

The Xenon Prime, launched as the signature model of four-time Singapore Champion Xevia, is one of three models simultaneously released by Offset Yoyos that boast an astounding 60mm width. This extreme wide design goes beyond mere novelty, delivering practical performance improvements.

The most notable effect is the increased success rate in mount-based tricks such as the trapeze. The overwhelming 60mm width significantly expands the margin when the string mounts, providing confidence that the string will land securely even when the yo-yo's trajectory is slightly off. This not only improves success rates with unfamiliar tricks but also enhances stability by expanding the tolerance range for precision when advanced players chain high-difficulty tricks consecutively.

In terms of construction, it adopts a multi-material design with an aluminum alloy body, stainless steel rims, and POM wings positioned at the outermost edge. This three-layer structure was designed to simultaneously achieve powerful spin generated by the stainless steel rims and the unique handling characteristics provided by the POM wings. The POM wings, positioned at the outermost edge, not only optimize weight distribution but also serve to cushion the impact when the yo-yo hits the body during body-based tricks. The rounded texture of POM is noticeably gentler compared to metal rims, reducing physical strain during extended practice sessions.

At approximately 67g, it falls into the heavier category for modern competitive yo-yos. However, in actual use, the comfortable handling that belies this weight is impressive. The meticulous weight distribution from the three-layer structure combined with the stability provided by the wide design means the weight does not hinder maneuverability; rather, it functions as an element supporting stable throws and control. When generating speed, the weight creates inertia that produces smooth acceleration, and even during sharp directional changes, posture disruption is minimized.

The 60mm width also provides a significant advantage in horizontal play. Mounts and binds in horizontal orientation become more reliable, reducing the difficulty inherent to horizontal play.

This model, reflecting Xevia's play style, transcends the framework of simply being a wide yo-yo, combining advanced performance through multi-material construction with practical utility for real-world play.
